Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent.

The Magen David Adom (MDA) ambulance service says a man riding an off-road vehicle in northern Israel is lightly wounded by shrapnel amid a rocket attack from Lebanon.

The 26-year-old, a resident of Yanuh Jat, is taken to the Galilee Medical Center in Nahayira for treatment.

The service adds that a woman is also reported hurt after falling over while running to a shelter, and another woman reported suffering from severe anxiety.

MDA says it is raising its level of alert amid the rocket launches from southern Lebanon at northern Israel.
